But former Red Devils defender Berg insists there is no need for panic at Old Trafford, telling the Weekend Sports Breakfast: “If you look at Manchester United’s fixtures, it has been unbelievable.

“They have been away to Liverpool, away to City and home to Chelsea. Already their two biggest derbies they have had and they have had to play them away from home.

“Everybody expected they would not win all their games straight away with the new manager coming in. He needs time to know the players 100 per cent.

“He has seen all these players before when he has played against them but it is one thing to see them on the opposition team and another thing to know them as people and to be able to see what they can do. That is something he is learning now.”
